Picking Dragons’ Pockets

[Verse 1]

I ain't your passenger now

Nor your equipment

An auditory trick

They're a boot that begs to be licked

I am the tarmac, I'm the pilot

I'm the flight path, can't get past that

[Chorus]

Well, they'll go crazy if you don't go crazy somehow

And I'm not crazy 'bout what they're so crazy 'bout now

[Verse 2]

We've been eating our own

We've been eating our young

We've been eating our own young

Idle hands around the devil's throat

A suicide note that another's hand wrote

And we're used to this

[Chorus]

And they'll go crazy if you don't go crazy somehow

And I'm not crazy 'bout what they're so crazy 'bout now

[Bridge]

Picking dragons' pockets and away we go

Breathed in poison, then you breathe out smoke

It's clear I'm looking for an anecdote

Well, you pay for garbage, and you've cast your vote

I found out just how low I'd go

Came up from the bottom looking like a ghost

I tried to go to Auckland but just did not go

Turns out when it rains, it snows

[Verse 3]

A pile of leaves in the wind

Fresh clothes on dirty skin

The means to meet no ends again

[Pre-Chorus]

Picking dragons' pockets and away we go

My eyes are their eyes, watch the show

Facts aren't facts on screens that glow

But we're a pretty tricky little animal

[Chorus]

Well, I'm not crazy 'bout what they're so crazy 'bout now

And they'll go crazy if you don't go crazy somehow

[Bridge]

The looked-at side of a microscope

Voice to skull, try to crush your soul

But we're pretty tricky little animals

Killers get killed, that's just the way it goes

Well, something that I know for sure

Is love makes love and hate makes more

We're pretty tricky little animals

Well, we're pretty tricky little animals

Well, something that I know for sure

Is love makes love but hate makes more

For sure, a pretty tricky little animal

We're a pretty tricky little animal

[Outro]

I ain't your passenger now

I'm just equipment

We've been eating our own

We've been eating our young

We've been eating our own young
